It's a Turtle's Pace

I had the pleasure of talking to Dave last night. He sounds really great. Aside from some knee pain which he has determined is due to 'overdoing it', he said he feels pretty good. He feels that his medical progress is definitely going forward, as opposed to backward. It's just going 5mph! But luckily, he has learned the art of patience and positive thinking, both of which have helped him be triumphant. His progress is slow, but gaining each day. He has had the pleasure of Olivia's company overnight already, and felt strong enough to drive her home once. So that's huge.
Next Tueday he will be seeing Dr. Anamur, and we will have some proper numbers. But it appears from how he feels, that those numbers will continue to be good.
He and I made a pact to check in with each other on Wednesday's, like we used to before the stem cell transplant, so that I can keep you all up to date on what's going on.
Happy Thoughts Accepted Gratefully,
Marilyn
